Chapter 186 I'm Not Psychopathic
Sitting in front of his computer desk, Ye Fan logged into the Go-playing website, created a custom room, and fixed his gaze on the screen as his thoughts began racing.
He was reminiscing.
This afternoon, he originally planned to add Ning Xi on WeChat, but the sudden appearance of Ning Xiangtian forced him to abandon the attempt.
At the ti, Ye Fan caught a glimpse of the QR code on Ning Xi's phone screen. Now, in his mind, he was slowly reconstructing the image of that QR code. With the enhancent of his Level 4 intellect, his mory was becoming increasingly clear.
After a few minutes, Ye Fan's eyes lit up, and his right hand moved the mouse to begin a black-and-white ga of Go.
The speed of his moves was astonishingly fast, one after another, with no hesitation.
Before long, a ga resembling a QR code appeared on the computer screen.
The corners of Ye Fan's mouth curved into a slight smile as he took out his phone and opened the WeChat scan feature.
"Ding—"
To Ye Fan, the sound was incredibly pleasant and lodious.
The WeChat na: Lemon Sweet and Sour, accompanied by a Cherry Maruko-chan profile picture, Ning Xi's signature style.
Ye Fan sent a friend request and waited. A few minutes later, the vibration from his phone lifted his spirits.
[Who are you?]
Seeing Ning Xi's ssage, Ye Fan's eyes glead with amusent. His WeChat userna was Only Love Lemon, and his profile picture was a large lemon.
It was normal that Ning Xi couldn't guess his identity—this made it more interesting.
Ye Fan's slender fingers danced quickly across the screen as he typed out a response.
[Guess who I am?]
[Who the hell are you? Say it, or I'll block you!]
Ye Fan's mouth twitched slightly.
Why didn't this match his expectations?
But he knew Ning Xi's personality very well—this girl ant what she said.
To avoid the fate of being blocked, he quickly revealed his identity.
[It's , Ye Fan. How can you not recognize ?]
[Ye Fan?]
[Impossible. Ye Fan doesn't even know my WeChat ID!]
[Who are you really?]
Even after Ye Fan identified himself, Ning Xi fired off three ssages in rapid succession, clearly disbelieving his claim.
"Is her guard this strong?"
Ye Fan muttered to himself, his expression full of satisfaction.
For a girl, being cautious is a good thing—especially in the murky waters of the internet.
Otherwise, she might be scamd at any mont.
[You're my lemon—no sourness, only sweetness...]
Ye Fan was confident that once he sent this ssage, Ning Xi would believe him because only the two of them knew this phrase.
But even the best-laid plans can go awry.
As Ye Fan clicked send, the ssage failed to go through.
He froze for a mont before his face darkened.
He'd been blocked!
This...
Did it have to happen so quickly?
He had gone to great lengths to add Ning Xi on WeChat, only to be rcilessly blocked after just two ssages?
Feeling dejected, Ye Fan sat in front of his computer desk for a good five or six minutes before recovering. Checking the ti, he noted it was already past 8 PM, and Ning Xi was probably in her room by now.
With this in mind, he found her number and dialed it.
"Beep... Beep beep..."
"What are you doing?"
After a few rings, Ning Xi's unique sweet and soft voice ca through, albeit tinged with a hint of exasperation.
"Didn't I tell you? You're only allowed to call ; I'm not allowed to call you. Don't you know my mom just left the room? If you had called a minute earlier, my phone would've been exposed!"
Ye Fan silently listened to the girl's complaints, the smile on his face growing wider. Chuckling softly, he said, "Did you really say that? I don't rember."
"..."
There was a mont of silence before Ning Xi's voice returned, "You're shaless!"
"Thanks for the complint."
"You..."
Hearing the girl's flustered breathing through the phone, Ye Fan found it increasingly amusing. But he decided not to tease her further; otherwise, she wouldn't talk to him tomorrow morning.
Changing the subject, he asked, "Xiaoxi, did you play with WeChat just now?"
"Yeah, I did. Oh, and a lunatic tried to add earlier."
At the ntion of this, Ning Xi sounded particularly excited, her soft, sugary laughter spilling through the phone. "And that lunatic even pretended to be you to chat with . It was hilarious."
"And then?"
Ye Fan's expression turned slightly stiff.
Ning Xi replied, "Then I blocked him! Do I look stupid enough to fall for such a cheap trick? That person was so dumb—even scamrs should be more creative!"
"..."
Ye Fan raised a hand to massage his temples, his face darkening.
"Xiaoxi."
"Hmm?"
"The person who added you just now was . Also, I'm not a lunatic, nor a scamr, and I'm definitely not dumb."
"..."
The other end of the call fell into a long silence.
"Click—"
The call was hung up.
Listening to the disconnection tone from his phone, Ye Fan's mouth twitched as he muttered, "Xiaoxi, I'm keeping score. We'll settle this tomorrow."
In her pink bedroom.
Ning Xi covered her face with her quilt, rolling back and forth on the bed. What had just happened felt like a social death mont.
It's over!
Not only had she blocked Ye Fan, but she'd also called him a scamr, an idiot, and a lunatic...
"Ahhhh—"
After flailing about for a while, she finally cald down. Sitting up suddenly, her unadorned face was flushed red, and her tousled hair added a touch of unique beauty.
"Wait a minute! How did Ye Fan know my WeChat ID?"
Resting her chin on her hand, Ning Xi pondered the events at the residential area gate earlier in the day. At the ti, she had just pulled up the QR code when she noticed her father's car and quickly put her phone away.
She hadn't even told Ye Fan her WeChat ID.
How strange!
No matter how hard she racked her brain, Ning Xi couldn't figure out that Ye Fan had reconstructed her WeChat QR code through sheer mory and Go skills.
"Forget it. I'll ask him tomorrow."
Pouting slightly, Ning Xi got out of bed and sat at her desk. Her eyes sparkled as she looked at the three star-shaped hairbands on the table.
Picking one up and putting it on, she glanced at herself in the small mirror to the side. Her lips curled into a smile, and her cheeks slowly turned red as an inexplicable thought crossed her mind.
Swinging her legs adorned in milk tea-colored snowflake socks, she muttered softly, "What does it an to like soone?"
As her soft voice echoed in the room, silence fell once more.
The next morning.
Ye Fan arrived at the classroom, put down his bag, and turned to look at the girl with a guilty expression. Narrowing his eyes, he said, "Xiaoxi, shouldn't we settle our score now?"
